Very predictable, m5 needs some downpipes n a resonator delete and it would sound good

Would also like to see them match up on a prepped surface, willing to bet it still stays very close.

The awd on the m5 and e63 is amazing those cars are down 50-60 hp on the hellcat and even more on the demon, if they brought some of this tech into the hellcat pretty sure we would see stock high 9 second cars.

Comparing AWD to RD is ridiculous

Those 2 cars couldn't be anymore DIFFERENT. 😂

Like the "Odd Couple". Both equally awesome, but they take totally different routes to get there.

The Demon does a huge shift hiccup on the roll race at 6:21 of this video. We do not know what settings they were using in the car though...

That article is doing nothing but trying to make the Demon look bad. Let's put that M5 up against a Tesla and see how it would fair.

2 totally different cars and both a lot of fun in their own rights. At 80 you can step on the M5 and it's like from a dig in your cat. The M5 is fast as shit... just like Godzilla and a bunch of other cars.

These car vs car videos are click bait...

Stepping on my Hellcat at 80 is like a dig in my Hellcat...

Other than from a dig where the AWD M5 has an advantage over a Cat - especially on street tires - wouldn't you expect a Hellcat to be every bit as fast or faster?

Most BMWs could not drive cross country without bringing extra oil with them.

Bring me one of those M5’s and lets just get it on against a RE at 80 mph. Who has one?

I think some may have misunderstood me... I was saying they are fun and have pep at high end. Not trying to say they are better than Hellcats.

Both of the people who were in the video knocked the Demon on the track but yet BOTH said they would pick the car to own over the M5 speaks volumes about the car. (y)

I’ve ripped TH in the comments a few times. They can never launch the hellcat correctly. Most biased you tubers on hellcat imo

I did 6.7 seconds 0-100 in the Redeye the other day in 45 degree weather.. on Nitto 555R2.. so what’s the M5 comp do?

Don’t forget it does 0-100 in 7.2 that’s with a 3.2 second 0-60.. which means it takes 4 seconds to accelerate 60-100. A normal hellcat in worst weather condition does 4 seconds. In best it does 3.6 60 -100.. the Redeye does 60-100 in 3.4 seconds or better in colder condition. My run the other day that I got 6.7 seconds 0-100mph in the Redeye. My 0-60 was 3.7.. just think about that for a second. That means yes do the math.. it did 60-100 in 3 seconds Flat. 81E76AD0-D7BA-430A-A420-0E7BF101CF04.jpeg

Here you go.. bmw M5 comp..
0-100 mph (s):
7.2
And quarter mile 11.2 .. so it’s the same as a regular hellcat.. period end of story. From a roll maybe it would take a regular hellcat. A Redeye, I highly doubt.

@Matt someone with an SRT

Also the the normal m5 does 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and quarter mile in 10.9 @ 129, Can't seem to find car and drivers stats on the competition model.

That 7.2 number is probably from the factory, I would imagine it's more like 6.7s.

The car is a demon killer on the street, you will need at least radials if not a drag strip to beat it from a dig.

But if it does 6.7 and 0-60 is 2.8 than that means it takes 3.9 seconds to go 60-100. I’m just saying.. I know it’s fast but I don’t necessarily believe my Redeye with Nitto 555R2 radials will lose to it 0-100

On the street you will get cooked from a dig, i think 50+ rolls it loses to a redeye anyway, possibly the hellcat as they are underrated too.

Drag radials on strip probably goes to redeye by an edge, demon should do its job here as well.

Also we are assuming the m5 is on street performance tires, not running a jb4 or downpipes, etc etc
